A brief description of the course: the essence and history of the development of genetics. The main stages. Mechanisms of cellular heredity. Hereditary patterns and principles of heredity of traits. Heredity in polyhybrid reflection. Determination of heredity in the interaction of genes. Sex determination. Inheritance of gender-related traits. Communication and crossing over. Heredity is outside the core. The molecular basis of heredity. The N chromosome and the fine structure of genes, the organization of the genome. The variability of the hereditary material. The causes of mutations and their artificial summoning. The norm of transformation and reaction. Regulation of gene activity. The genetics of microorganisms. The molecular mechanism of mutations and recombinations. Genetics of personal development. Population genetics. The genetic mechanisms of evolution. The genetic specificity of breeding. Genetic engineering.
Qualification: preparation of reports using genetic biometrics methods; determination of plant and animal karyotypes by Express methods; modeling of protein biosynthesis processes involving DNA and RNA;
Skills: the use of experimental mutagenesis methods in new plant and animal breeding.
Conclusions: the conclusions obtained in the study of theoretical problems of heredity and variability serve as the basis for solving the problems facing practical genetics.
The textbook is addressed to a wide range of readers involved in genetics, as well as students of secondary and higher educational institutions, undergraduates and doctoral students conducting research in the field of genetics, biology, biotechnology, technology for processing livestock products, food and processing industry.
